Each major project is linked to one of the Natural Resource Regions based on the Natural Resource Sector ministry lead and the FLNRO regional lead. Where FLNRO is the lead ministry for a major project then there is a FLNRO regional office that is leading the review of the coordinated authorization permitting process.
